Description of the problem | Passenger airbag warning light on when my wife (145lbs) is in the passenger seat. This happens from the moment the car is turned on and persists the entire time while driving. Was told if the warning light was on that the airbag would most likely not deploy in an accident. This occurs each and ever time my wife is in the vehicle over the course of the past nine months. There have been recalls on many nissan/infiniti vehicles in 2013 and 2014, and it seems that this safety issue is present in the 2015 models as well. Dealers recommendation was to have my wife sit in a different seat!?!? Two photos attached - first is closeup of illuminated passenger airbag warning light. Second photo shows a wider view showing the air bag warning light and the passenger appropriately seated with seat belt on. |
